Specs

Terrain:Carving

Carving

For those that like the classic feeling of laying a ski over on edge and arcing a perfect turn, carving skis are what you want. These skis have narrower waists and shorter turn radii for edge to edge quickness and responsive turn initiation and exit on groomed runs and hard pack. The beginner-intermediate skis in this category are designed to make learning how to turn as easy as going from pizza to French fries.

Ability Level:Advanced-Expert

Advanced-Expert

Whether you charge the steepest lines, carve with race-like precision, hit the biggest jumps or halfpipes; advanced to expert level skis/snowboards are for the more aggressive rider. You will often find the addition of layers of metal, carbon, bamboo, or other stringers in these. These features work to make a stiffer ski/snowboard with more power and rebound.

Rocker Type:Camber

Camber

Camber is the traditional profile for skis offering skiers lots of edge hold, especially on harder snow. A cambered ski has a smooth arch underfoot and contact points near the tip and tail when unweighted. Camber skis excel at carving on hard snow; you won’t ever see a ski racer on anything other than cambered skis.

Turning Radius:Short

Core/Laminates:Metal, Wood

Tail Type:Flat

Flat

This is your traditional tail, designed to have edge contact all the way through the tail, and only designed for skiing forward. This is also preferred for alpine touring, as you can stick the tails of your skis in the snow.

This is a world cup quality SL race ski. One of the tightest turning radii out there that I know of: 11.5 on the 156 model. That allows you to get on edge quick and whip the skis around, even on ice, but they will wear you down. These are NOT cruising skis. The Salomon XT enduro, what used to be the 24 hrs is a great ski for that, this is a gate-ready slalom ski for frontside, hard, icy, slopes where you want to show off your quick radius turns. Very stiff.
